Ronnie Ortiz-Magro

On last night’s Jersey Shore, there was a guido/gorilla break up of juicehead proportions. Kuckas were flashed, tears were shed, screams were heard ’round Italia. It was pretty epic.

We rejoin the meatballs post-wreck. If Snooki thinks that this is the worst thing to happen to her while she’s in Italy, she needs only to wait a few days! Snooki gets a breathalyzer, and because she doesn’t have her license, she and Deena are being carted off by the Italian police. The guys arrive with her license just in time to see the house car being towed. The boys spend two hours in the waiting room at the station before they are able to free the meatballs.

Once home, Snooki calls Jionni to tell him of her recent escapades. Jionni tells her that Roger can’t come any more because he has to work. Snooki relays the news to JWoww, and she calls Roger very upset. It seems Roger’s leave from work has been denied. I think there has to be more to it, but I want to like the Roger I met at the shore.

Tonight marks the return of MTV’s biggest hit in over a decade aka Jersey Shoreseason 3. So what can we expect? Well MTV seems to be adhering to the formula that has proven to be a success meaning we can expect more drinking, fighting, sex, and fist-pumping.

In fact, MTV has released the first 10 minutes of tonight’s episode (it’s posted below) and in the clip, we get to see Snookiand her pal/new roommate Deena Nicole Cortese as they arrive to the shore house. And within 5 hours of moving in, Deena gets drunk, naked, tries to get into bed with The Situation, who rejects her because he doesn’t want to get “situated” on day one , and calls Sammi a “c*nt.”

It doesn’t end there as Deena brings up Ronnie’s name leading to an all out confrontation between Deena, Ronnie and Sammi. Once again, this all happens within the first 5 hours of Deena moving into the house. Should be a great season!

The show premieres tonight at 10/9c on MTV.

In other Shore news, it seems there is some new drama brewing for on-again off-again dysfunctional couple Sammi Giancola and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. The two, who are currently on-again by the way, might soon be breaking up as the latest issue of Life & Style magazine reports that Ronnie hooked up with a female partygoer during a wild night at NYC club Greenhouse on Jan. 3.

“Ronnie and the girl were hugging and kissing,” an eyewitness tellsLife & Style with Ronnie even proceeding “to give her a lap dance.”

Here’s to hoping this will mark the final break-up for Ronnie and Sammi. Oh, who are we kidding? The new cheating scandal will probably bring these two crazy kids closer together! The preview clip is below -

TELL US – WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE PREVIEW CLIP AND TONIGHT’S EPISODE OF THE JERSEY SHORE?

They’re baaack! The crazy kids of Jersey Shore are set to return to MTV on January 6 for their 3rd and most likely final season.

And for the first time on Monday night, MTV aired a 30 second trailer to promote the third season. In the preview clip, posted below, Vinny is shown engaging in a four-way kiss, the new cast member Deena Nicole Cortese is shown getting down and dirty, and it seems Jwoww and Sammi get into yet another physical fight.

Also shown is Snooki‘s now infamous drunken fiasco that ended in her being arrested. Based on the preview clip, the formula of drinking, fighting and fist pumping remains in full effect. Should be a hit! The last season of the show brought MTV it’s best ratings in a very long while. The show averaged over 5 million viewers per episode.

Season 3 premieres on Thursday, January 6, 2011 at 10/9c on MTV.

In other Shore news, TMZ is reporting that cast member Jenni Farley aka JWowwis being sued by her ex-boyfriend Thomas Lippolis, who has been featured on both seasons of the show.

Tom is alleging he served as JWoww’s business manager, helping her sign deals with MTV, nightclubs, a tanning lotion company and even a plastic surgeon. In court documents, Tom claims he was the one who negotiated her Jersey Shore deal of $17,500 per episode plus a $75k bonus “dependant on ratings at the end of the season.”

According to Tom, JWoww stiffed him and he now wants $350,000 to make things right. Sources close to JWoww however deny Tom’s claims, stating he did not negotiate her tanning or MTV contract and he was paid for the appearances he booked.

JWoww also fired off a letter to her ex a few weeks ago requesting he return the nude photos of her in his possession. The letter read, “It has come to [Jwoww’s] attention that you may be in possession of certain photos of her that may be derogatory to her image and in violation of her contract with MTV.”

And the photo above is of the Jersey Shore cast with Barbara Walters as they earned a spot onBarbara Walters’annual list of the “10 Most Fascinating People.” The cast members gave Barbara a lesson in GTL — gym-tan-laundry — grenades,” and smooshing.”

Jersey Shore star Ronnie Ortiz-Magro is speaking out on the way he treated his on again, off again, on again, off again, and now on again girlfriend in Miami.

In a new interview, the 23-year-old expresses regret over the way he treated Sammi Giancola, 22,while the couple filmed the second season of the MTV hit show in Miami. Ronnie was shown on the show going out to clubs, kissing other women, then coming home and jumping into bed with Sammi.

“When I saw myself in the club with those girls [it] was, ‘Wow, you’re the man right now at the club. You look f—ing awesome,'” he told MTV. “And then when I go home to Sam, I’m like, ‘Wow, I’m embarrassed. I’m ashamed of myself. I’m embarrassed about what I did to her.'”

Ronnie also swears he isn’t a bad boyfriend, despite what the rest of the world might think. “I’m not that guy. I don’t know what I was thinking about,” he said. “I watch it and I’m just like, ‘You’re an idiot. You are an idiot. Like, what are you thinking about?”

TMZ is reporting that cast member Ronnie Ortiz-Magrowas picked up on Sunday morning and arrested for unpaid parking tickets. According to TMZ, Ronnie paid the tickets, and was released. The above picture was taken after his release.

The Seaside Heights Police Department released a statement stating “Ronald Ortiz was placed under arrest for outstanding warrants from two separate jurisdictions … Mr. Ortiz was transported to the Seaside Heights Police Department where he was processed and later released after satisfying the conditions of these warrants.”

This is the second arrest for a JS cast member in two weeks. Snooki was arrested back on July 30th for public intoxication.

In other Shore news, RadarOnline is also reporting that Snookinow has a new boyfriend. According to Radar, Snookie’s new BF is Jeff Miranda, who is described as a 24-year-old Iraq veteran.

It also seems unlike Snooki’s ex-boyfriend Emilio Masella, who is now trying to become a reality star, Jeff wants to keep their new relationship low key. He posted the following on his facebook page – “People no more Snookie (sic) talk… She is an amazing girl and couldn’t ask for any more or less. I am not making any further comments about Nicole and myself. When the time is right you will be updated.”

However a source tells RadarOnline Jeff isn’t the good guy he’s trying to portray himself as, saying he is a “player” and “he’s become a gym rat and hooked-up with Snooki to get popularity and fame. Let’s face it, the guy wants to be a star.”

Multiple media outlets are reporting DJ Pauly D has several sex tapes floating around. Popcrunch reports the amateur tapes are said to be with a Canadian model he met this year while doing promotion for the first season of the MTV hit show.

“It is being revealed that they filmed a few sex videos while together – Our insiders say the girl in question has no intent on selling the recordings… But we all know eventually they will come out!!,” adds the ZackTaylor blog.

The magazine cover photo, which hit stands this week under the banner “Queer Issue” and above the headline “The Guido Ideal” — a story about “gay Jersey guidos on the down-low,” has led to some whispers and questions about the guys’ sexuality, but not so fast reports the NYPost.

The Post is reporting the guys were not aware what they were posing for and had no idea they were being photographed for the Queer cover. A source from the mag also adds, “The paper’s not saying the cover boys are gay, just that that they’re hot.”

The guys however seem to be good sports about the cover and The Situation was even quoted in the past as saying: “I’ll be honest, I like the attention [from gay men]. I’m flattered if there are guys with different preferences that have crushes on me.”

Tonight’s episode of MTV’s hit show Jersey Shore will feature another run in with the law. This time around, it involves cast member Ronnie Magro, who was arrested back in September after getting into a fight with another man in front of MTV’s cameras.

Ronnie Ortiz-Magro was arrested on Sept. 4 for aggravated assault for striking a man with a closed fist. Ronnie, 24, tells PEOPLE that though the charges have now been dismissed, he did spend a few hours in jail, had a mug shot taken and paid about $600 for bail.

Ronnie claims he was provoked while he was walking home from a bar with Snooki and their costar Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola. According to Ronnie, the other person involved in the fight was being disrespectful to his friends, shouted “racist” remarks at their African-American security guards and might have spat on him. He however regrets the incident, “I definitely felt out of place,” he says of being in jail. “It’s definitely a place I never want to go back to again. Definitely a lesson learned.”

Still A Couple – In other news, Ronnie and his girlfriend from the show, Sammie Sweetheart are surprisingly still going strong. The pair confirms to PEOPLE that they are indeed still together and care very much for each other. “I care about her deeply and I see it going for a long time,” Ronnie says. “I don’t really want to jinx anything [but] I love being with her. I have a best friend that’s my girlfriend, which is really hard to find.”

Adds Sammie: “I’m very happy and content with my life right now. Things are just amazing and I’m just gonna go with it.”

Jenni “J-WOWW” Farley, has also reconciled with her boyfriend Tom, despite cheating on him with costar DJ Pauly D on the show. Jenni says all is well with their relationship and he moved in four months ago.

And finally, the ladies of the show stripped off their 5035 20 pounds of make up for a makeunder photo-shoot courtesy of In Touch magazine.

From left to right, Jenni “J-Woww” Farley, Nicole “Snooki” Polizzi, and Sammi “Sweetheart” Giancola — who swear by eyeliner, bronzer, and lip gloss — ditched their make up for the shoot. Must say Snooki looks the best, she should consider making this look permanent.
